The Hell-Hound of the Baskervilles (#2)
Previous: A Study in Brimstone (#1) | Next: My Grave Ritual (#3)
The game’s afoot once more as the long-suffering Dr. John Watson and a partially-decomposed Warlock Holmes (though he’s getting better) face off against Moriarty’s gang, the Pinkertons, flesh-eating horses, a parliament of imps, boredom, Surrey, a succubus, an overly-Canadian aristocrat, a tricycle-fight to the death and the dreaded Pumpcrow. Oh, and a hell-hound, one assumes.
Reviews
"I’m completely addicted to this series, and here’s hoping I won’t have too long to wait until my next Warlock Holmes fix”
“charming, amusing, and all around wonderful...If you’re a fan of the mashup culture that’s overtaking literature these days, are a fan of Sherlock Holmes, or simply want a wonderful, fun read, I cannot recommend Denning’s latest novel enough.”
“Packed with hilarious characters, paranormal events, and callbacks to the original Sherlock Holmes stories, this book is a great choice if you’re into paranormal retellings of the classics”Newbery and Beyond
“I highly recommend Denning’s fresh new twists to the classic cases of Sherlock Holmes to anyone who loves stories filled with magic, mystery, murder and hilarious hijinks. Warlock and John capture the readers’ lust for adventure within these magical cases and provide a ton of laughs within every story.”Geek Hard
